What is Özgür Irmak Gait Analysis?

Personalized insoles provide the best function of the foot. The pressure on the feet is reduced and stability in the joints is increased. In this type of insoles, the main target creates perfectly compatible insoles that will eliminate the foot problem of the person. Gait analysis is the examination of a person’s gait in kinetic (in terms of factors that cause joint movements such as force, pressure, moment, torq, and determine kinematic magnitudes) and kinematics (in displacement, linear velocity, acceleration, and equivalent angular magnitudes). The person that is going to be examined is carried out on the treadmill, the angles and forces formed in the limb joints during walking are measured, and all the data obtained are transformed and presented as graphics.

With the help of the force plate located on the treadmill, how much momentum is formed in the joints during all phases of walking is quickly and automatically calculated by the computer. Anyone who wants to analyze gait can benefit from Gait Analysis. Walking shots are accompanied by cameras with the help of markers (reflective tiny balls) that reflect the infrared rays emitted by the cameras onto the joints and muscles that are desired to be examined. Superficial EMG electrodes are attached to the muscles to be examined and shots are taken. More detailed examinations are made by zooming in on the joints, desired parts of the body, or walking phases.

Comparisons are made for different situations of the person using special software. (Before and after the operation, before the botox, normal walking). The data received from the system are converted into graphics. The results and graphics obtained can be converted to an Excel file and archived. Analysis data obtained in 3D in our Özgür Irmak Insoles Center are shared with our doctors and patients in a report.

After gait analysis and special measurements like static and dynamic, the soles are applied according to deformation and the anatomical structure of the foot. Personalized insoles provide the best function of the foot. The pressure on the feet is reduced and stability in the joints is increased. In this type of insoles, the main target creates perfectly compatible insoles that will eliminate the foot problem of the person. One of the most important details in the preparation of personalized insoles is the degree of stiffness of the insoles. Factors such as a  if a person is diabetic, has pressure wound under the foot, a person’s weight, sports activity are important in planning the stiffness degree of the insoles. 6 different hardness materials are used in special insoles made in our Özgür Irmak Insoles Center.
